Is an embryo a person? Subject to debate and without resolution.
Marriage: logical action; insures the security of the mother and child; not specifically a moral question. Responsibility.
Murder, in a moral sense, is wrong. Therefore, killing those who engage in abortions is also wrong. War is wrong. Euthansia is wrong, even though in some cases we permit an individual with terminal disease and unending pain to live while we call it "merciful" to end the life of a pet with the same condition. Murder in God's name is definitely wrong, but condoned in certain cultures.
Morality is relative and changes with the society in which you find it.

Define Morality. I don't accept relativism on basic moral behavior.
Theory is defined in the traditional sense, for you hypothesis.
Embryo is resolved for me, this is a human.
Marriage. Your social evolution definition makes me smile. Many of those who who point to social evolution are the very ones not getting married and not starting families. It is ironic then that they point to those who, as a group, do not believe in social evolution as proof of such evolution.
War is an action of the State and not of an individual. In that sense it operates under a different set of rules. I agee with you it is open to debate.
